Rookie clone question

My first grow from a seed was a male so I went and bought a clone from a dispensary. It is called tropsanto. I was surprised when I picked it up. It is already very bushy and about a foot and half tall. I expected a tiny little plant. I replanted it into a bigger pot - it came in a 1 gallon pot.
Question , is it ready to bloom and should I do 12/12 lighting or give it time in the new pot at longer hours of light ?
Thank you.

It’s up,to you and your grow area size, etc. I would personally let it grow with a bit of basic lst, then once she’s about two foot flip the lights.

A picture would be a big help?
Normally with being a clone it's ready to flower anytime it's technically the same age as its mum, I'd guess at 18" tall with 8-10+ nodes you can flower it, if you want to fill a bigger space hold off.

I will post pic this evening. I was going to wait a few days because some of the leaves are a little yellow too.

I'd top that plant and make sure I had the nutrients dialed in before flipping to flower. To me it looks hungry. But what do I know, I've only managed a few decent grows to date. Good luck and hope the genetics are what you were hoping for!

Thank you. I think your right it does look unhappy.

Did you tansplant to that soil mix, or that's what it came in? If transplanted, let it root out first, but either way put it in a 2 or 3gal next, let it recover from trans and root out into that pot for a week or two. Top now like FF said and maybe lst/tie down branches to spread out and lower canopy gently, then flip a day or two later

I transplanted to ocean forest and a 3 gallon pot. Thanks for the advice. My first time so I am googling and then came across this forum. Which seems very helpful so far ,

The purple in the stems goes pretty deep. I’m guessing at a magnesium deficiency. They look like they have been underfed. I’d feed them 75% dose of food, and see how they react in the next couple of days. What do you plan on giving it?

I don’t have anything to give it ? I thought the ocean forest mix was sufficient?
